F from Atlanta, Georgia Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Good looking shoe - I went with a previous reviewer's suggestion to use Dr. Scholl's type gel pads, which were great. I also had to use a band aid at the back of each of my heels to prevent chafing. Also be sure to spray scotchguard to protect against rain. Other than that, I love the look and very much enjoy the shoes. Like many other reviewers, I wore these shoes from middle school through college, and until I went to Zappos I could not find them. 2006-11-13 12:03:03 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Carolyn H from VIRGINIA BEACH VA. Overall: Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support GIFT FOR DAD - I purchased the boots for my dad who is 88. He remembered the extreme comfort of these Desert Boots from years ago, and wanted another pair. They were just as he remembered, and the only complaint was, a little tightness in the toe. Overall he was very pleased. As for myself, I have never experienced such FAST service and shipping, with NO shipping charges! This will be my shoe shopping place from now on. THANKS! 2006-09-19 07:05:36 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from Virginia Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support Classic - Great shoe. I say that if you're going to wear a desert boot, wear the original. Felt just a tad stiff across the arch but broke in just fine. Looks great with jeans. Am pleased with the quality from Clarks as well as Zappos! 2006-07-28 19:24:54 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: The B from Austin, Texas Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Still laid back. After seeing the number of reviews, there is truly is a great Desert Boot army out there, cool. I am 55 years old and have been wearing them since 1964. They are a great comfortable shoe and they have always looked good with Levis jeans and those old Levis cord jeans of the same color. Old school, no khakis. The last pair I bought did not have the soft leather lining on the interiors. I miss that. The old interior covered the sides, toe box, tongue, everything. I wish you guys could bring that concept back. But, you still make a great shoe that is timeless. There are no other shoes like them. You can see and feel the youth in them. Hi Ho, keep on truck in. Go. Boot. After. 2006-07-20 16:02:36 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Ken S from Chicago, Illinois Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Great looking, need wide widths - I always wanted a pair of these ever since I was in grammar school in the sixties; my parents wouldn't hear of it. Dress codes, dress codes, all the way through high school. In college, I had wallabees and desert treks, but never a pair of desert boots. Finally, this year, I bought a pair. I'm a size 11 wide, and they fit front to back right out of the box, but they were really tight around the balls of my feet and my instep, and wearing them two days straight didn't break them in; my feet actually hurt! I took them to a shoe repair shop to be stretched, and that did the trick. They're now incredibly comfortable and look great. I can walk all day in them, and wet-pavement traction hasn't been a problem. 2006-07-18 12:07:55 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from Columbia,Tn Overall: Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Fit of desert boot - The desert boot is a great boot, but the medium size is misleading. The boot is very narrow in the mid-foot area and wide in the heel. Never had this problem with other Clark shoes 2006-07-10 07:20:35 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Albert T from Maryland Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Yard man Clarks - Clarks are the most comfortable boots man has ever created for foot wear. I have been wearing Clarks Desert Boots and Shoes for the last 40 yrs, and will not trade my Clarks for anything. Theres no boots that are dressier, comfortable, it is a boot that gives you walking balance, and it caresses your feet and brings surety to one's steps. I love my Clarks. I buy Clarks and take them home for three special buddies. We have been wearing Clarks for years. I remember my first pair of Clarks. I was about fifteen years old at that time. I was working at the Local Post Office Since then; I probably bought and reallocated many many pairs of Clarks. I presently own about 10 pairs of Clarks. 2006-06-20 07:04:48 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Michael from New York City Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Retro look - Most of us who grew up in the 1960s and 1970s had a pair of Clarks Desert Boots. They were comfortable and a nice look. It's time to get a pair again! 2006-06-15 18:32:28 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Lenny F from Boston Massachusetts Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Harking back to High School. These shoes are great. They are exactly what I have wanted since I was in high school. They fit perfectly. They are the right color. Initially the size I ordered was too small. I sent them back and within a few days I had the correct size. Everything and everyone was very professional. I look forward to doing more business with Zappos. In fact I notice the Desert Boots also come in a dark brown. Thank You. 2006-05-29 14:54:48 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Charles from Tennessee USA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Knight order - I used to wear these desert boots when lived in Libya and was with the British Army. They're, cool, comfortable, wear well and can be worn with jeans or dress up trousers. A great shoe. 2006-03-23 05:29:12 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from Denver, Colorado Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support Best Desert Boot Ever - I have had 5 pairs over the past 4 years. I love 'em. Just about all I wear. 2006-03-09 07:43:00 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from Los Angeles, California Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Classic shoe- This boot is a classic. Brought me back to the early '70's. Fit and feel are great. Not much support but a smooth enveloping. Gum sole is very comfortable too. It does show dirt at the bottom edge due to the light color of the sole. 2006-02-10 08:57:34 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from Santa Cruz, California Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support Retro has never left!! Had them in high school, had them in college. Loved them back 30 years ago, still the same great look and comfort. Can't get much better than that. 2006-02-07 21:37:06 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Rick N from Harrisburg, PA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Bring back my HS Days- I think I wore Desert Boots every day of my HS "Career" from 1962-1966 and it is great to see them available again... I now have 3 new pairs... 1 to wear... the others when #1 "wears out!" Wish that Clarks would produce that original "browner color" again though, as I would be in "retro heaven!" 2006-01-04 08:11:57 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from San Diego, CA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support I really am enjoying my Desert Boots. I used to wear Clark's Desert Boots all the time, and somehow got away from them for years. My wife knew how much I used to love them and surprised me with a pair for Christmas. What a pleasant surprise when I opened the package and saw them. They are just as comfortable as I remember them to be, and look good with whatever I wear. 2005-12-22 06:03:23 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from El Paso Texas Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support He's worn them since the 60's- My brother has worn this shoe since the 60's when he was a teen. My mother buys him a new pair every Christmas and he always needs them. Since moving to Florida from Texas, he finds them a little less practical then they were in the desert but still wears them constantly. The amazing thing is that my brother owns two restaurants and they are comfortable enough for him to wear them to work where he is on his feet 12 to 14 hours a day. He recently was asked where to get them from a hospital worker. They look good with jeans. 2005-12-12 22:23:43 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from Mid America - What everybody flies over! Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support "Feel Good" I have been buying this shoe for years....but my feet are expanding and I need a larger size than you appear to carry! Can you get a wider size. Thank you.......CHRis......eom 2005-12-07 18:40:19 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Ninokobe from LOS ANGELES, CA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: No arch support I use to own Clarks Desert Boot - same color - many years ago and I wore this shoes every time... in fact I still have it although I out grow it. It was the best shoes I ever had - quality and durability-wise. I am so terribly disappointed with the quality of this new shoes that I just purchased. It is totally a different material. The leather is so flimsy and the rubber sole is so flat and "spongy". Nevertheless.. you guys are outstanding...easy to order..fast delivery..easy to return the merchandise... I rated your service-- five stars *****not the shoes 2005-11-23 09:24:29 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from Manchester,Pa Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Comfort plus - Used to wear them as a teenager. Loved them. Couldn't find them anymore.Tthought they were a 60's style. Found them here, found out they were actually British military shoes. Bought them. Still love them.Ccan't beat looks and comfort. 2005-11-08 06:52:42 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Jack from LA Area Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: No arch support Desert Boot - Comfortable and sleek, a throwback to another era. You'll wear them out before you know it! 2005-11-08 06:02:52 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Caddy D from Ft. Myers, FL Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Caddy Daddy - I have worn Desert Boots off and on for about 40 years. They are still the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. They always seem as if they are too big when I put them on, but fit just perfect. 2005-10-03 06:42:07 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Malcolm G from Idaho Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support purr-r-r-r - ..I wore out my first pair about fifty years ago, and was very happy to find them again at Zappos. Now, if I could only find someone who sells the Cavanagh Cavorter double-brim (hat)... 2005-08-31 20:47:54 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from Dallas, TX Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support I wore them in the '60s and they are still great! Look and feel very good. 2005-08-31 09:28:03 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: Anonymous from San Francisco, CA Overall: Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: No arch support They run narrow - I was very happy with the selection and service at Zappos. I wouldn't buy shoes over the web anywhere else. Although these shoes look cool (to some) they don't have much support or cushioning. In addition, they run narrow. I have a narrow foot and ordered a medium. They feel even too narrow for me. 2005-08-17 06:21:49 Clarks Desert Boot Reviewer: John V from Washington, DC Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support No other shoe - I bought my first pair of desert boots in Libya more than forty years ago and I have worn nothing else since then except for a few occasions like when I wore black leather shoes for my wedding. They are easy to care for and always comfortable as all-weather shoes.
